Al Faro - LODI

After years, returning to this small restaurant where bruschettes are a poem. show also the first and sandwiches, with a great quality of beers and desserts. Show!

If you are visiting Lodi (small town closer to Milan) and if you love hamburgers take the chance to have dinnner in this restaurant. The managment of the restaurant has changed recently. The location closer to the Adda river is very suggestive. They are specialized in hamburger and beers, but they have also other dishes (pizza or pasta). The quality of the food is good and we enjoy to spend time here with friends.

The restaurant setting is nice with a 'local ' feel by the river, however, the food served for lunch was hands down the worst meal we 've had in Italy and would go as far to say Europe. We had spaghetti carbonara, which was off colour and off tasting with the bacon burnt, and I suspect was refried in cheap oil before serving, as well a spaghetti with lumpfish roe, which was similarly drowned in cheap oil and not fresh. Also the beef carpaccio dish with cheap sliced raw button mushrooms was so unappetising it makes me feel terrible about the waste of meat. To top it off, it is not cheap and they do not accept card payments, adding to the feel that the place is run by reprobates. Avoid at all costs!!

I had a wonderful experience down in lodi, little city near milan. The city sucks but the faretto worths the long travel! If you pop up there in lodi it 's really reccomanded
